Unless he wows he will either be practice guy and taken by another team or simply cut.

I think he may be the backup plan for this year if Reggie Bush misses any time. I don't know if the staff is as sold on Leshoure as we think they are.

I don't know why we passed on Ellington so many times. He would have been a PERFECT replacement for Bush if Bush got hurt. I don't get it. This guy is a slow, scrub.

Multiple Ankle surgeries and other injuries during his career. He's also a straight line guy that runs high and doesn't have good agility for his small size. He's like Arron Brown.

Be better in a zone blocking scheme.

Re: Theo Riddick

Didn't we coach Ellington at the Senior Bowl? Must not have been too impressed with the guy.

Ellington got taken right before our 5th rd pick. I think we traded down right after he was taken

Ellington was taken in the middle of the 6th.

Re: Theo Riddick

Watched some highlights. Not super quick, but seems to have good acceleration.
